Pennies isn’t interested in what you’ve bought just what budget it should be allocated to. The app then recalculates the amount you’ve got left, and if you wish you can have it displayed as a permanent Complication on the Watch face. You can set weekly, monthly, bi-weekly, bi-monthly, one-off and custom budgets, track in multiple currencies - great for holidays or business travel - and on the Watch, all you need to do is record how much you’ve spent against a particular budget, so for example if you have a shopping budget you’d tap it, tap Spend, and then enter the total. Pennies was a recent Apple Editor’s Choice, for good reason: it’s a very simple and effective budgeting app that allows you to get on top of your spending without having to spend too much time doing so. It's not the cheapest calculator app, but it's worth the money. It includes a converter for distances and other measurements, and if you Force Touch the app you'll see a Send To iPhone icon as well as the clear and undo buttons.Īnd on the iPhone the main app is a great tool for serious calculating (and quick sums: there's a mini-calculator if you Force Touch the app icon). That's not all the Watch app can do, though. Alternatively you can use the Digital Crown to enter the figure in the tip calculator. It supports watchOS 3's Scribble feature too, so you don't need to dictate or tap on a tiny keypad if you've downed that second bottle of wine. Simply tell it how much the bill comes to, how many people are paying and how big a tip you want to leave, and the Watch app calculates how much each person should hand over. That's because of its handy bill splitter. Yes, it's a fantastically useful calculator and scientific calculator, but much more importantly it prevents fisticuffs in restaurants. The apps we tend to love the most are the ones that solve real-world problems, and PCalc falls into that category. The inclusion of a Recently Used selection is really handy too.īring! Isn’t going to change your life, but if you’re currently using Reminders for your shopping then you should find this much more convenient. There’s a good selection of predefined items with icons for even faster identification – it’s quicker to process a picture of bananas than read the accompanying label – and it’s easy to add and remove items from your list or just tick off your shopping. Unusually for an iPhone and Watch app, you can only install Bring! from the App Store on your Watch rather than the more common iPhone installation route.Īs a shopping list app, Bring! is exactly what you want: fast, simple and easy on the eye. The phone app also enables you to store your loyalty cards, although of course you can do that with most of them in Apple’s own Wallet app already. Outdooractive: Walks & Bikingīring! takes an interesting approach to the idea of shopping lists: in addition to functioning as a list app, you can also use it to discover new recipes from multiple recipe sites and blogs. It’s just a shame that the subscription options require so much reading to find out what package offers what. There’s also a new 3-day forecast complication for the Infograph Modular face.Īlthough Carrot first caught our attention with its ability to offer foul-mouthed forecasting – a feature you can adjust to make your watch faces family-friendly – it’s still on our Apple Watch because of its well-designed complications, which are particularly good on the Infograph face, and its impressive accuracy. That one’s reserved for subscribers, as is the change to notifications: Carrot can now mark rain, lightning and weather alerts as time-sensitive notifications so they aren’t disabled by different Focus modes. Carrot Weather has had two major revamps in the last year: version 5, which overhauled the interface and moved to a subscription model and version 5.4, which added a Smart Complication that you can customize to show different kinds of information throughout the day.
